Description

Color:Black, Clear Bottom; Lid:With Lid; Type: Optical Polymer Base

Thermo Scientific™ Nunc MicroWell 96-Well Optical-Bottom Plates with Polymer Base have a solid polystyrene black or white upper structures with a polystyrene film at the bottom of the plate. The plates are optimized for fluorescence and luminescence in cell culture and microscopic applications.

White or black polystyrene upper structure with polymer or coverglass bottom plates combine the optical clarity of virgin crystalline polystyrene with optimal surface for a wide range of HTS applications.

• Background, autoflorescence and crosstalk are improved when you use Nunc Black or White microplates
• Black microplates are recommended for florescence measurements; with minimum back-scattered light and background fluorescence
• White microplates are recommended for luminescence measurements; with maximum reflection and minimal autoluminescence
• Available in black for fluorescence assays or white for luminescence and fluorescence assays; both with clear bottoms
• Polymer base plate
• Working range, 50-200μL/well
• Customized bar coding is available
• Aseptically Manufactured

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What does it mean for a plate to be "Aseptically Manufactured"?

Prior to treatment with an extra cellular matrix (ECM), the plates are sterilized. The ECM treatment is a process that utilizes sterile technique, but we cannot claim the product is "sterile" because it has been opened. If the product were to be re-sterilized after the treatment, the ECM coating would be ruined. For the purpose of using this plate in cell-culture applications, it is functionally sterile.

Should I use an opaque black/white immuno plate, or an "optical-bottom" design?

Opaque plates can only be used on “top reader” instruments, which detect (or, in fluorescence mode, excite and detect) from above the plate. Readers that detect from underneath the plate (or imaging systems) use optical-bottom plates, which have a black or white upper well structure and a transparent (polystyrene film or optical coverglass) bottom.
